Trump was banned from Facebook and Instagram after he posted a supportive video during the Jan 6 Capitol riot.

“Given the seriousness of the violations and the ongoing risk of violence, Facebook was justified in suspending Mr Trump’s accounts on Jan 6 and extending that suspension on Jan 7,” the board said after its review. “It is not permissible for Facebook to keep a user off the platform for an undefined period, with no criteria for when or whether the account will be restored,” it added.

The US leader was banned permanently by Facebook the following day, and he was taken off other platforms including Twitter and YouTube.
